Top Dog Gala 2017

The Fresno State Alumni Association honors distinguished alumni during annual event at the Save Mart Center.

For the first time, I covered the Fresno State Alumni Association’s Top Dog Alumni Awards Gala at the Save Mart Center, on Oct. 13. Shout out to my buddy Cary for the referral.

This was a super fancy event. A lot of folks were in tuxes as the association honored 14 recipients including Kim Ruiz Beck, of Ruiz Foods, who was named Distinguished Alumna.

It’s great to see all the good work local alumni are doing and how they constantly praise what they learned from their educators while attending Fresno State. Kinda makes me wish I went to Fresno State instead of San Jose State for my journalism degree. Wait! Heck no! I’m true blue and gold and proud of it. 🙂
